Irish Soda Bread
I've always loved Irish Soda Bread and have made it several times over the years. This recipe is adapted from The Little Irish Baking Book
What You'll Need:
2 cups of unbleached all purpose flour
6 cups of whole wheat flour
3 teaspoons of baking soda
2 teaspoons of sea salt
1 quart of buttermilk
Preheat oven to 400 F.
Mix all ingredients in a very large bowl until dough forms. Divide dough and shape into two large or 4 small round loaves. Cut an X on the top of each loaf and bake for 40 minutes to an hour, until bread is browned and sounds hollow when tapped.
Note: Smaller loaves will take less time. Check them 30 minutes into the baking process and keep an eye on them from there if they aren't done yet. They brown quickly, but the inside takes longer to bake.
